| Go with the four stoke hands down, the money you will save on gas alone will be more then the difference after the first 2 years max.
My 4 stroke 115HP cost me less in gas then my 40HP 2 stroke did and thats not including oil. You have to remember this is on a 1100 Lbs boat vs a 600 lbs one.
Then you can add the pollution factor, the noise, the fumes and so on. |

| Go with the four stroke! I have a Merc 60-4 and LOVE it. |

| I agree four stroke all the way. No worry on gas then, just picked up 75 HP Honda and man is it quiet and fuel effic.
